A tutor can make an immense difference in the learning attitude of a student, the benefits of which are numerous as having the right mentality can prompt students to become more disciplined, focused and interested and can in turn improve their academic outcomes long term. My strengths as a tutor would be my patience, approachability and…

The most important thing a tutor can do is foster courage in a student's ability to learn. A confident student will be more open to approaching learning. I would foster courage by encouraging the student when they use correct techniques, and gently swaying them towards the correct direction when they aren't quite there. I believe my greatest…

I believe one of the most important things a tutor can do is to help the student find confidence that they can achieve, whilst keeping their passion alive for the subject. A tutor is there to help students find the answers so they can realise their full potential. Through my work as a science communicator, I have the ability to alter and tailor my…

Help them improve their grade so they can reach their goals. I used to be bad at mathematics to begin with so I can predict where a student might have problems and prepare a way to help them beforehand. I am also a people person thus I am quite comfortable interacting in one on one…

Support is a major part of tutoring. Support and encouragement are the best ways to improve confidence allowing studentss to take more from school each day. As a student when you start to build that confidence from not feeling behind in class and the sense of achievement from really understanding the work it creates a 'snow-ball' effect and…

Science Tutor Colonel Light Gardens, SA
I think one of the most important things a tutor can do is be encouraging towards a student; often students get tutoring in a subject they are struggling in and are already mentally finding it difficult so it is critical a tutor positively encourages them and reminds them of their improvement. It is also very important a tutor listens to the…

since the goal of a tutor is to teach the student I believe that the most important things tutors can do for students Is teach the underlying concept as well as the method to solving a problem, this allows the student to apply what they have learnt in different circumstances if the same underlying concept is used. I have excellent problem solving…

The important thing is to develop the student's ability to independently study. It is like that proverb 'Give a man a fish, and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish, and you feed him for a lifetime.' There are going to be times where the student will find themselves in a position with an urgent question regarding their assignment which is…

I consider the two most important things for a tutor to do are to first inspire confidence in the student and identify the area of difficulty as precisely as possible. Students are generally not equipped to identify the precise area of their difficulty as they don't have the knowledge to fully place it in the context of the subject. By…

Inside Crafers WestTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Raffy practised factorising and expanding algebraic expressions, and compared frequency tables and percentages while finishing his final assignment.

In Year 9, Lily focused on solving trigonometry problems using sine, cosine, and tangent rules to find unknown angles or sides, along with applying Pythagoras' theorem in various contexts.

Meanwhile, Year 10 student Marcus revised exponential equations involving both growth and decay scenarios and received help using a graphics calculator for these problems.

Recent Challenges

A Year 8 student regularly forgot to bring essential materials, such as their graph book and textbook, leading to lost lesson time—one tutor noted, "forgot textbook, so time was lost."

In a senior class, another student finished tasks quickly but packed up immediately instead of reviewing or extending their work.

During a Year 10 algebra session, working steps were not shown clearly; the tutor remarked that this hid sign errors.

A Year 12 learner hesitated to ask questions even when confused, relying on the tutor for answers rather than engaging directly with feedback and independent problem-solving.

Recent Achievements

A Crafers West tutor recently noticed a Year 10 student who had struggled with careless mistakes in algebra now double-checking her work during sessions, catching errors before moving on.

Another high schooler, previously hesitant to speak up, has started asking the tutor to clarify tricky test questions—showing she's more comfortable seeking help rather than guessing.

Meanwhile, a Year 4 student who used to shy away from worded maths problems is now reading questions out loud and underlining key information without prompting. Last week, she completed an entire set of mixed problems independently for the first time.

Local Spots for Tutoring

If you'd prefer not to have lessons at home, tutoring can also take place at a local library—such as Stirling Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Upper Sturt Primary School.
